Why Manny Wants to Return to Cleveland…
It may have more to do with his hate of the Red Sox…
MITCHELL BLATT
Manny Ramirez has expressed publicly what JSB was reporting last summer–that Ramirez wants to return to the Cleveland Indians.
Ramirez told the USA Today:
“I would like to play for Cleveland one more time, to go back where I started. … I think to go back where you started is everyone’s dream.”
I reported last summer that Ramirez wanted to go back to Cleveland, but the Indians didn’t end up wanting to spend money on him.
However, his desire to return to Cleveland may not be rooted so much in wanting to return to where he started his career as it is in making sure he doesn’t get inducted into the Hall of Fame as a Red Sock, says one of my sources.
The MLB HOF people decide which team a player represents when they are inducted, and Ramirez played 8 years with both the Indians and Red Sox (getting traded during his eighth season in Boston).
He put up similar stats on both teams, though for his first two years with Cleveland, he hadn’t risen to stardom.
If he were to be inducted today, my source thinks he would be a Red Sock, but if he plays just a few more years in Cleveland, he’ll be an Indian. Because he hates the Red Sox so much, he doesn’t want to be a Red Sock.
Just some speculation…

Do players not get to pick which team they want to be inducted into the Hall of Fame as?
No they don’t.
